Neuroplastic effects of EEG neurofeedback

Tomas Ros completed his PhD in 2010 at Goldsmiths, University of London, exploring the impact of EEG neurofeedback on long-term brain plasticity using TMS. During the last decade, he has researched the potential of neurofeedback as a novel treatment for psychiatric disorders, such as post-traumatic stress disorder and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder. 


Neurofeedback provides the possibility of endogenously manipulating brain activity as an independent variable, and as such provides a novel way to investigate brain function and neuroplasticity. In this talk, I will describe how Electroencephalography (EEG)-based neurofeedback may be deployed in novel experimental and clinical paradigms using multimodal windows on the brain, including fMRI and transcranial magnetic stimulation. Lastly, the neuroplastic effects of neurofeedback will be examined from the theoretical perspectives of Hebbian and homeostatic models of brain plasticity.
